It’s beginning to look like a busy Summer for Nick Carter.

Not only did he release his latest solo album Love Life Tragedy last month, followed by a series of comic book themed videos, but he has been traveling between his home in Las Vegas to rehearsals in LA with the Backstreet Boys to prepare for their upcoming epic Summer residency at Sphere, which he has been documenting on his Instagram.

But with Summer comes a busy baseball season and when he’s not on stage, you can oftentimes now find Nick on the field at a little league practice, cheering from the stands or at the batting cages with his son Odin.

His world as a Backstreet Boy and baseball dad collided this week when the Las Vegas Aviators invited Nick and Odin to throw the first pitch at their home game at Las Vegas Ballpark. If you missed it, you can rewatch the live stream of the sweet moment (and Odin’s killer pitch) here and check out Socialite Life for more photos!

The Backstreet Boys will be opening their Into The Millennium run of shows on July 11th – don’t miss them!
